Hurry Up And Dream

Hurry Up And Dream, Love
I'm trying to get to sleep
streets are filled with a reverie
so silent, so deep

Hurry up and dream, love
So you can throw me on your horse
ride across galaxies
Veer some worlds off course

C: It's meant for random patterns, dear
But I know they work
Hurry up and dream love
Hurry up and dream love
For I'm waiting
I'm waiting

Hurry up and dream,love
I've slipstream's at the hand
Clocks will all run backwards
'Til mountains meet your command

Hurry up and dream, love
For roses I have in snow
shiver, anticipating
redemption in full glow

Chorus

Insomnia's a bust, i know
my heart is starting to ache
Your body wrestles in the sheets
Your breathing makes me shake

We've long since decided
which is better or which is worse
As we make our maiden voyage
across our universe

Chorus

Hurry up and dream,love
I've stayed awake too long
Your slumber pulls me away
from finishing off this song
